Septic tank riser frequently asked questions
Why do I need a riser?
Risers provide easy access to the septic tank for de-sludging, maintenance and repairs, saving on digging costs.
How do I know if I need a riser?
If the lids on your septic tank are buried, installing a riser is recommended as it is a requirement that all septic tanks are to have access openings at ground level for de-sludging and maintenance.
How do I install a riser?
Installing a riser is generally a job best left to professionals; however, they are easily installed if you wished to do it yourself. Installation instructions come with every riser sold.
Will a riser affect the appearance of my yard?
Our risers are aesthetically pleasing and can be installed flush with the ground or with a slight protrusion.

Well done in bringing this product to the market
Hi Rob. Just wanted to pass on how pleased I am with your tanks. You have bridged the gap with a product that addresses the problems with the light weight poly products and the heavy concrete tanks. You have a brilliant design that will not split or distort as the poly tanks do or delaminate in a corrosive or acidic environment that will destroy any concrete tank. They do not need any heavy lifting equipment to install or transport and have a riser system that can be adjusted to suit the ground level perfectly without the need to position the tank to suit this. A truly brilliant product that will give years of service. Well done in bringing this product to the market. Kind regards, Wayne

The saddle and riser worked out perfectly
The saddle and riser worked out perfectly. Easy to put in place – a brilliant design in it’s simplicity. I’m very happy that I came across you online. The pump out boys (Alexandrina council) we’re seriously impressed too – I’m guessing they’re hoping a lot more people put them in place too (save their backs)!
